Enjoy the serenity of this charming country cottage and relic in the bygone era of the original Kangiara general store which serviced the local pastoral and mining community from 1909 until 1927.
Full of character the 2 bedrooms plus study or rumpus room with high ceilings throughout, wooden floorboards, cedar windows and French doors really feels like home. Originally a three-bedroom home one of the bedrooms has been converted into a luxurious dressing room with plenty of storage and your own private beauty area.
Centrally located the open plan kitchen has a beautifully crafted wooden bench top and a LOFRA 90cm five gas burner oven or enjoy those winter nights with the aroma of a home cooked meal on the wooden kitchen stove.
The large living area is perfect for entertaining or cosying up around the gas fireplace.
Relax year round in the closed in veranda after a long day at work and enjoy the peace and tranquility.
The old store is not only a great storage space but would make a fantastic artist studio or workshop.
Situated on 2,020m2 block with Yass only 27mins away and Boorowa just 15mins down the road you are able to escape to the country and have school bus services to both locations at your doorstep.
History
Kangiara was an important mining site and settlement in the period of 1903-14. It was an active community with strong neighbouring communities such as Tangmangaroo. The former Cocks Store and adjoining house is significant as one of the few surviving buildings from the Kangiara mining settlement. While Penning’s House has been restored some aspects of its construction suggest that it dates back from an earlier period.
